32 comforts = 8 buckets
12 bleach = 3 buckets
So could of been 11 bucketsbut as each shop had 8 comforts and 3 bleach and you only get a bucket for every 4 items I should of only got 8 buckets and that's all I did get:A:j
Was it not one free bucket for each shop that contained at least 4 qualifying products?“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”

Thinking about it though, just adding 4 bleach to a normal shop would get you a bucket for not much more than the cost of a bucket by itself.“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”

Another night I can't sleep:eek:
No one around and the lights are on, oh well I'd better flick the switch to off as I leave and go back to bedThere's no place like home
Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.
Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.0 -

Baby is very small and if delivered now, he is predicted to weigh 1-1.5kg :eek: :eek: they won't let her go past 37 weeks, so he will be here in the next 3 weeks.
They had a bit of a meltdown today so I went to the hospital to sort them out. Turns out that they don't have anything ready at allwe sat down and made a list of what they need and prioritised it. Me and my brother went out tonight for some bits so they've got the very basic stuff now.
I remembered from ages ago about the little angels newborn packs that were £4 with a £10 voucher inside - I got him to get one of those and told him how to recycle the vouchers
I actually feel so sorry for them. They've clearly gone through this pregnancy with their heads buried in the sand and living in a fantasy land where everything baby related happens by magic. They've got a hell of a reality check headed their way:(
The really sad thing is how little they've got so far. I've brought home the clothes they've got so far so I can wash them and take one job off their hands. It won't even make up a full load of washing
If there are any newborn related glitches out there, please shout very loudly!
Hiya, for moses basket, crib, cot and toys, pls lookup on ebay. I bought a brand new moses basket there for £7 ! My cot costed me £15. Ppl sell toys bundles - i bought some and sanitised them.
John lewis has baby clothes sale at the moment. Their sleepsuits are brilliant. One surprising discovery - primark baby vests and sleepsuits are very gopd quality. So are their baby blankets. They all survived my 90deg washing and are still in pretty good nick!There is more to life than increasing its speed.0 -

i'm glad people managed some bits from T's, I've been having a mare for the last couple of weeks as the husband broke his ankle, so I'm having to do everything for all the kids (they all swim and do football/athletics etc) its proper doing me in, sleeping for under 2 hours a night as well, i'm in agony with my shoulder - back to the physio thurs!
and then husband says 'I've got pains in my back of me leg' so he has been in A&E all night and they queried DVT and has just got home - oh which he has gone to the MIL because he wanted some sleep.....
there goes my rant lol
